Description

2666 is Roberto Bolano's vast and haunting novel of literature, obsession and violence, centred in part on the fictional Mexican city of Santa Teresa and a series of unsolved murders. Moving through critics, a mysterious writer, war, journalism and crime, the book creates a fragmented portrait of the twentieth century's darkness. It is a demanding but extraordinary work for readers of serious literary fiction. Dense, unsettling and formally ambitious, it rewards patience with a sense of scale and dread few modern novels can match.
